Sharing of cost of necessary measuresN.I.

45.—(1) Where an undertaker's apparatus in a street is affected by major road works, major bridge works or major transport works, the allowable costs of the measures needing to be taken in relation to the apparatus in consequence of the works, or in order to facilitate their execution, shall be borne by the authority concerned and the undertaker in such manner as may be prescribed.

Provision may, in particular, be made for disallowing costs of the undertaker—

and for allowing only such costs of either party as are not recoverable from a third party.
